Calibration‐Free Electromyography Motor Intent Decoding Using Large‐Scale Supervised Pretraining

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Calibration‐free electromyography motor intent decoding is enabled through large‐scale supervised pretraining across heterogeneous datasets. A Spatially Aware Feature‐learning Transformer processes variable channel counts and electrode geometries, allowing transfer across users and recording setups. On a held‐out benchmark, fine‐tuned cross‐user models

Reasons for (prior) belief in bayesian epistemology [PDF]

Bayesian epistemology tells us with great precision how we should move from prior to posterior beliefs in light of new evidence or information, but says little about where our prior beliefs come from. It o¤ers few resources to describe some prior beliefs

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We
